The simple truth.

I expect Obama will become the next president. As well, I do believe the Democrats will rest control of congress. Regardless of whether I believe this election is legitimate, I do believe this eventuality was foreseen and inevitable. This would have happened earlier, but our first communist was beset on two fronts. The first front was age and disease, the other front was a Republican congress. What this means, to me, is beyond mere words. It means I am no longer a state sponsored free man. When Hitler took office, when Lenin took over, when the Eastern Bloc puppets were placed in power, this is what it looked like. It will take a few years for the Constitution to be subverted, but it will happen. It will start slowly, and sometimes very brown-shirt like. Thugs will attack those in the media who disagree with what is being done. Our media has shown it is willing to be a slave, with few exceptions. After that is cared for, bloggers will be shut down, one way or another. Then the “legal” methods of disenfranchisement will begin. Firearms will become illegal. Elections will be set. Freedoms will be curtailed with, of course, some room for overt corruption as a means of making everyone culpable in being an outlaw. Beyond, with the Feds having a vested interest in all major banks now and with their forces mustered to control Wall Street, various levels of centralized economic planning will begin. Woe be to those who wish to be independent thinkers and actors, even innocently. This time, we will not be saved from our oppressor by age, disease, or Republican resistance.

It, hopefully, will take some time for the implementation of full blown socialism and communism. There is some time to plan, if no real hope for real escape as there is nowhere in the world to go. The planning has begun, in my mind, in means of maintaining as much freedom and life as is possible for as long as possible. I must guess that, if bloggers existed pre-Hitler and pre-Stalin, historians might have saved some blogs much as this one. Though, given historians near wholesale sell out of history, this material would be archived and kept from public edification, if too they would be kept from the powers that be so as to keep historian’s little indulgences into non-group think for their own perverse pleasure. Time is not our friend nor, it seems, is the Republic. Though I hope Americans and the Republic will choose to save itself, I do not see great hope in that. So, it comes down to us. Those of us who know better had best start considering our options, for they are few and time sensitive.

What am I going to do? I do not know, not for sure. I do have a few ideas. I have changed these a bit, due to my previous and public considerations. I, most likely, have as many enemies reading this blog as I have friends. Beyond, even if all you all where friends, thugs have a means of attaining information that goes beyond the typical man’s capacity to refuse the giving of information. I have some equipment and I will be garnering more as I complete my plans to head out. I must admit, I do not plan to go live in the bushes, I merely mean to relocate and lie low. I plan to live in a place where questions are less likely to be asked. I also plan to begin collecting things which should be saved, bibles, the constitution, the bill of rights, and other collections of wisdom. I would consider saving sciences, however, I think those are fairly safe, if their conclusions may become controlled. Then again, that to some degree is already the case.

After the election, I will know for sure. My plans are nearly set, yet I wait to ensure that the end of the Republic is at hand. Once I watch it die, I will begin completing my plans and then begin implementing them. A fire give-away, some drastic choices, a move, and then a settling in. The settling in will include a network of information gathering, a beginning of new friendships and alliances, and finding ways of living quietly and somewhat secretly. I am too old to really fight, and beside I am unsure any such fight would be fruitful. Though I believe large groups being obliterated in warfare against an overbearing state, time and again, would eventually have some real affect, I fear that such a thing would eventually merely turn to terrorism which I do not abide, which methods I do not believe are right serving, and which beyond that I do not believe will work in the end.

And, yes, that is how I see it. Many of you cannot move and believe you will not need to move or hide or change. Most of you speak your mind, whether left or right. As such, I assure you, you will be subdued. You will be pushed. If you are on-line, you have some wealth and education. Both of those also go against you. Do what you wish and believe what you must. Your hope in man, if it exists, will soon be extinguished. My hope is with you, but my surety is not.
